No need to apologize... if you do end up being 'slightly naive': you'll be just like every other member of the forum. I doubt anyone will notice.
Quote:For the longest time, I refused to call myself an Atheist. But today, I think I really confirmed with myself that I am. I remember, since i've always been forced to go to church, and still am, taking communion. So today, well this evening I decided I wouldn't. I swear, I could feel the stares. My friend's mom confronted me about it afterwards, and I realized basically I don't belive. Which equals Atheism, obviously. So I told her that.
They sound entirely too interested in you. Are you popular, or are they creepy? Or... may the gods forbid... both? 0.o
Quote:They're all judging me, but whatever. At least I figured out something about me.
I guess that's it, and again i'm sorry if I come off as stupid or something like that.
Don't worry: I'll judge you too. Self-discovery's always a plus.
Unless it turns out you find that your prime directive is to kill every squirrel that you see... in which case, I'm certain self-discovery will significantly impact your dating life. Negatively.
Stop tripping over yourself in apology... it's not as if we bite. .... Er.... it's not as if they bite. Often... at least most of them don't have rabies and won't bite you without your consent

As for me... I promise nothing. May I come in?
Please give me a home where cloud buffalo roam
Where the dear and the strangers can play
Where sometimes is heard a discouraging word
But the skies are not stormy all day
